    That would have required Fury to want to fight someone in their prime...

      Usyk who shared 24 rounds with the pair is best placed to know , he clearly states Fury . I suppose now Fury has taken the heart , soul and body from Wilder who is now totally shot after the brutal trilogy , that Joshua will go sniffing around the corpse .After looking worst than ever and being brutally dismantled again , there'l be no 'live' one's that's for sure

        Fury fought Wilder, whatever you think of Wilder, he was still considered very dangerous at the time of their fights. Hearn has been feeding Joshua past prime 40 yr olds looking for the last big payday before retirement. Outside of those, Parker is Joshua's biggest win (but the ref was a farce in that fight), Ruiz took Joshua's soul, and Uysk has shown how overrated Fury/Joshua are.

          Cant believe it takes 10 years to make a fight. And to rub your nose in it, they use the theyve lost so the fight shouldnt happen now excuse? If you put off a fight for 10 years and expect to not lose, what planet are you on? Not everyones a Rocky Marciano, or Joe Calzaghe or Usyk.

                  Zhang is right. It has always bothered me, for many years really, how in boxing you can have two people in the same country who have world title belts but refuse to fight each other for a long time. I mean, how on earth can you call yourself a world champion when you are not even the best in your country?

                    British cuisine has a mediocre reputation for a reason.
                    Marination is a good technique when properly used.
                    Otherwise, meh.
